Some other general info:
This piano has been optimized and only properly tested for linuxsampler.
If you want to optimize the .sfz yourself, values of interest are:
-amp_veltrack (dynamics, %)
-ampeg_release (note release decay, seconds)
-The volume(in dB) on the pedal noise is located on the bottom of the .sfz file under //pedalAction
[!] I suggest you make a backup of the .sfz file before you start fiddling with it :)
In the time of writing, sfz for linuxsampler has not come out of cvs. So, it's still a bit of a pain to get this paino going.

Changlog:
V3
* Removed rowchange after every opcode the .sfz file should be more human readable for people who'd like to customize things.
* Re-export A5v7-15 that had noticeable delay in beginning of file.
* Adjusted the velocity at wich notes are triggered.
* Increased ampeg_release to 1.000
* Decreased amp_veltrack to 75
* Retuned version by Markus Fiedler
* The old V2 .sfz should work so no need to delete it if you like it :)
* fixed a missing note

V2:
* Re-exported all notes with all lowcut filters removed and eased off some eq on some notes around C4
* Replaced all pedal noise samples, there are now two down and two up samples.
* Increased ampeg_veltrack on release harmonics from A0 to C2
* Increased ampeg_release to 0.850
* Introduced a 44.1khz16bit and an ogg vorbis version
